Richie Dalton moved to Australia from Ireland 20 years ago and has become an integral part of the Australian rallying community in the ensuing time.

His Toyota Yaris AP4 or Ford Escort are seen often on the stages and they're driven fast and flamboyantly.

Dalton's got an arm injury, though, that might just rule him out of competing alongside Kris Meeke at the Otago Rally in April.

We talk about all things with Dalton in an intriguing chat about life and rallying.

Competing in the snow at Rally Sweden is a bucket list experience, and a few have done it from Australia.

From Ed Ordynski to Chris Atkinson, Peter Rullo and Taylor Gill will join this small group in 2024.

The RallySport Magazine team speaks all about these Aussies and their history on the tricky snow and ice.

The Special Stage Rally Podcast team goes through all the ins and outs of the Christmas period, discuss the news from across the first part of the season and look forward to the season ahead.

Rallye Monte Carlo is discussed in length, particularly the hopes of the three main championship protagonists – Elfyn Evans, Thierry Neuville and Ott Tanak.

We also delve into a legendary rally car that has seen the stages in country Victoria for the first time in many years.

Glenn Brinkman and co-driver Dale Moscatt are ready for a huge adventure in the form of the 2024 Dakar Rally.

For the longtime rally pairing, it has been a build-up of at least a couple of years to get to the start line.

Brinkman is a Queensland Rally Champion and is well known as a rally and off-road competitor, and he’ll need all his skill from his 30+ years in the sport to complete the gruelling Dakar Rally.

He explains to Luke Whitten what his preparation has involved and what he’s looking forward to about that challenge that will last two weeks and almost 8,000 kilometres.

It's nearly Christmas time, and there’s still lots happening in the rally world, but for this week's episode of the podcast, we’re going to give you a bit of a teaser of our DustTrails Podcast.
